"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.

In Finnish, "Mustakettu" means "a silver fox with black fur" (that's right); the number is production date. Nope, I'm not Finnish, but my grandmother was.

You can't technically call me an "artist" because I don't have any formal training in anything art-related (unless literary analysis counts... or mathematical analysis... or structural analysis...). Yet, I always strive to do my best.

I am truly sorry if my work offends you for whatever reason, be it one of aesthetics, religion or world politics. Or one of mismatched sense of irony. No, really.

I dabble in traditional art, but I specialise in 3D rendering. I do some modeling and texturing of my own; however, my forte is lighting and material set up, so I generally use content provided by other artists (hey folks, you're awesome).

I render almost exclusively in 3Delight, a totally amazing and in many ways groundbreaking Renderman-compliant renderer with a generous free licence; I prefer to write my own shaders because it's a lot of fun.

From time to time, I put out freebies to be used with DAZ Studio, a lovely "hobbyist" program with great potential.

If you find a "pinup" image in my gallery, check again. Your brain is fooling you.

Feel free to visit my blog, where I post 3D tips, random musings, test renders and just about anything else that comes to my mind!

Not everyone may know that here on dA, the "block user" function works quite similar to that of facebook: i.e. it's not an "ignore" button; you will still see the person's comments elsewhere, but! It will prevent you two from immediately contacting each other.

Moreover, it has a few dA-specific features not everyone knows about:- first of all, a block performs a mutual unwatch, which is not reverted when you remove the block. So it's a neat way of removing the watchers that you somehow don't feel to belong in your elite follower ranks.- apart from that, when you block someone, it clears that deviant's favourites list of your works.

Feel free to use this info to your devious advantage

...I never said I was a "good" kinda person. I am very much evil, dear friends and watchers.
